Albeit just my subjective thought, 
I find the background lamp-post a bit distracting. 
You may not have been able to move to right  or   shift / swing viewpoint to left to exclude it (?),
or used a wider aperture to soften it further (?).
Otherwise ,  good shot .

Couldn't move. I was behind and shooting between two people. Aperture was wide open so that couldn't change.

NIce candid portrait. Native American and Vet...very nice and uncommon. Would make a nice photo essay on him, if possible.

Agree with db3348. The lamp post shouldn't be too hard to remove in Photoshop and would be worth the effort.

This is a good shot. The color is really nice. The subject is very compelling.

There are times when one cannot control the light, background, foreground, etc. That's just the way it goes. Make the image regardless, or move on. :-/
